Page Description Content

The Kentucky Tech System (KTS) data exchange is a secure transfer of student enrollments between the student's high school and technical center. The data exchange streamlines processes, eliminates the need for email and paper reports, and minimizes dual data entry.

Main Content

Participating technical schools can fully utilize both KSIS and the Continuous Instructional Improvement Technical System (CIITS) in their classrooms.

Home high schools can run real-time attendance reports that reflect attendance entered by the technical school into KSIS. An optional attendance sync feature is available for high schools that allows previous day unknown attendance to sync nightly from the technical school back to the high school. Additionally, the nightly data exchange process posts students’ technical school grades to the appropriate high schools, allowing for athletic eligibility determinations, and posting of both high school and tech school grades on student report cards and transcripts.

Infinite Campus training is offered in various forms. Upcoming training opportunities are posted on the KSIS Training webpage. Additionally, Infinite Campus provides all users with access to Campus Community and Infinite Campus University where users can access product information, sign up for forums and enroll in online trainings. Step-by-step videos specific to the KTS Data Exchange have been created by KDE and are available on the right of this page under the Other Training Resources heading.
